Troubleshooting the Funambol Component

Setting up the Funambol server in Opentaps
The document which explains how to set up the funambol server is hot-deploy/funambol/docs/man/otfm_admin_guide.doc
After following this steps, you should have a complete funambol server working.
Synchronising Opentaps and Mozilla Thunderbird
Hosting: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sync4jmozilla
Configuration to synchronise with the admin account with opentaps and mozilla thunderbird on the same computer:
Edit --> Preferences --> Funambol
Account server URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080/funambol/ds Username: admin Password: ofbiz
Synchronize Items --> Contact --> Details
Select the addressbook to sync Remote name: otcontact
If you have the extension Lightning, you can also synchronise your calendar. I recommand to install the extension Provider for google calendar as well, so you can export items from Thunderbird to Google Calendar.
Synchronize Items --> Calendar --> Details
Select the Calendar to sync Remote name: otcalendar
Synchronising Opentaps and Outlook
In case you are using windows 2000, you have to use the funambol outlook plugin 3.0.15 But this plugin can't synchronise contacts with the funambol version 6 which is included in opentaps. You'll be able to synchronise tasks and calendar only.
To install this plugin, you have to follow the instruction in the document http://download.forge.objectweb.org/sync4j/Outlook_Plugin_UG.pdf
Configuration to synchronise with the admin account with opentaps and outlook plugin on the same computer:
Edit --> Communication Settings SyncServer URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080/funambol/ds Username: admin Password: ofbiz
Edit --> Synchronisation Settings Activate synchronisation with Contacts, Calendar, Tasks Remote Settings: Contact Name otcontact Calendar Name otcalendar Task Name ottask
Hit the Synchronize button.

The synchronisation with Calendar doesn't work, because yahoo connector use calendar in Vcalendar format only and opentaps send the calendar in sif format. Please don't activate it.
